It was 1-1 at the break and the Bianconeri seemed to have the upper hand, including a sensational Mario Mandzukic bicycle kick, but fell apart in the second half.
“We had managed to score the equaliser, but in the second half Real Madrid simply played better,” the Brazilian told Mediaset Premium.

“We had managed to score the equaliser, but in the second half Real Madrid simply played better,” the Brazilian told Mediaset Premium.
“I think it was the approach we expected from them. The difference was we didn’t defend as well as we usually do.
“If we don’t keep the concentration and intensity levels at the top all the way through, Real Madrid can hurt you straight away with the talent at their disposal.”
